Description
NOMS are inviting expressions of interest for a Grant Award to support an organisation with work that is aimed at encouraging and to foster interpersonal relationships between staff and service users. Developing an understanding of the needs of the service users can in turn influence a more meaningful relationship.

The scope of the grant is broadly as follows:
1. The grant will help support, promote and encourage a range of approaches to facilitate improved outcomes for service users. NOMS commissioning intentions include provision to commission services which will "enhance public protection and ensure a safe, decent environment and rehabilitative culture".
2. The funding seeks to enable the following outcomes:
For the applicant/s to be successful the recipient of the grant would demonstrate how their proposals will have specific focus on the development of tools, activities, evaluations and interventions that can improve outcomes for residents of AP's.
